Young Plumbing & Heating Company

Young Plumbing & Heating Company handles HVAC work for homes across Houston, Texas. The crew also takes on plumbing repairs as part of daily calls, and they operate under ties to Lalonde Cooling, Heating and Plumbing while keeping the original phone line and staff that Houston customers have known for years. Technicians such as Chris Robinson have handled air conditioning and drain problems at the same properties for two decades or more. Local homeowners count on the outfit when summer heat knocks out cooling units or when lines start to back up from everyday use. The company focuses on quick responses in a city where humidity and old pipes create constant issues for residents.

Chris Robinson and his team show up to fix kitchen sink drains that homeowners already tried to clear themselves, unclog main lines that slow down over time, and sort out air conditioning faults that leave houses uncomfortable. They often arrive the same day after a morning call, finish drain jobs in under thirty minutes when the blockage is straightforward, and leave systems running again without extra trips. Longtime customers note that the same technician returns for repeat visits on both plumbing and cooling equipment, which keeps the work consistent. In Houston traffic and weather, that same-day pattern matters when a unit quits during peak heat or a sink backs up before dinner.

Homeowners who have used the company for fifteen or twenty years praise the steady knowledge from Chris Robinson and the crew, along with friendly attitudes during repairs on both AC and drains. Some mention that prices for basic unclogs have risen over time and arrivals can slip past promised windows, which pulls down marks on speed and cost. Overall the reviews show solid marks on quality and communication from repeat clients but mixed notes on timing and fees that keep the average moderate. DIRT Score 3.6 from 36 reviews on Finds.

“I’ve used Young’s Plumbing for 20 years. Now with a new name, LALONDE COOLING, HEATING AND PLUMBING, same great people and same phone number! Chris Robinson has taken care of my plumbing and air conditioning for years. He and his team are so knowledgeable and are some good people! Will continue to call upon them for the future. Good news! They will now have a nights and weekends phone system for real emergencies. No need to call anyone else. Thanks Chris and team!”

“I have a problem with my kitchen sink not draining properly. I called Young Plumbing on Monday. Told them the problem, and that I had already tried to snake the drain myself. They told me that they would had an opening for after lunch on Tuesday. I said okay. They didn't arrive until 4:05 PM. They brought their snake machine in for the kitchen sink. I had also said that there was a problem with my bathroom sink being a slow drain. The person on the phone said that they charged by the hour, and to bring up the sink and any other issues while they were here. I did. He fixed the slow drain in the bathroom sink. It was just dirty. I also had him look at my toilet not flushing the way that I thought it should, he told me that he didn't like the aftermarket handle mechanisms. He just changed it without asking. Now the kitchen sink I was just told that there is mud in it and that was all. No further trouble shooting, no estimations, nothing. They were gone by 4:40. Charged me for the whole hour, plus the flushing mechanism that I didn't ask for and the snake machine. $180 later and my sink wasn't put back together ( I had taken it apart myself ), he even said that he didn't like the plumbing drain pieces that I had under the kitchen sink. So nothing truly fixed, no estimations, no trouble shooting, here less than an hour but charged for the full hour. Won't be using these folks again.”

“I Have used this company for over 20 years for my plumbing issues at my house. For the longest time it was a flat $100 to unclog main drain then went to $125 last couple times I used them. I called for service to unclog slowly drain line The guys came out unclogged line in 30 minutes then kept walking back and forth and messing with machine for unknown reasons I thought nothing of it an waited in house When they finally brought me the invoice it was $257 for a simple drain unclog . Apparently now they charge $150 an hour plus a $30 machine fee, so they going to milk it for as long as they can . That’s how they operate now… It doesn’t benefit to use local anymore . I will never use them again and TOLD THEM SO . Please, Call anyone but Young’s Plumbing. Don’t get ripped off by this company . **Years ago ,My father said never hire someone to do a job by the hour, you will get screwed every time. **”

“Great service have used this company for about 15 years or so. Call them in the morning and someone (usually Chris) is out that day and has the problem fixed. Always nice and friendly.”

“Are you having problems with your air conditioner and don't know who to trust? You can trust Young Plumbing & Heating! I had a horrible experience yesterday with another company (they told me they couldn't fix my AC for 5 days because of parts they needed), so I called Young Plumbing & Heating and told them what was going on. They showed up in 30 minutes (I waited 10 hours for the other guy) and they fixed my AC within 2 hours (they went to get parts). Not only did they fix my AC, they also told me that the other company was trying to charge me for something I didn't need. Thank you Young Plumbing & Heating!”
